[00:07] ---
    The Generation Quest has been
    going on for three long months,
[00:12] ---
    but today at last, we reach the grand finale!
[00:16] ---
    Thank you so much to all of the fighters
    who have participated!
[00:23] ---
    The fighters who have barreled through
    this long, fierce battle and won 50 stamps
[00:28] ---
    will receive the title of
    "Generation Master."
[00:32] ---
    Congratulations!
[00:42] ---
    And coming out on top
    of all the participants,
[00:46] ---
    the one and only team
    that won all of the quests
[00:49] ---
    and accomplished the great achievement
    of attaining all the stamps,
[00:53] ---
    TRY3!
[00:56] ---
    You were really amazing!
[00:59] ---
    Congratulations!
[01:00] ---
    Thank you.
[01:02] ---
    Say, everyone, don't you feel sad that
    the G Quest is going to end like this?
[01:07] ---
    And TRY3 just won the whole thing undefeated,
[01:10] ---
    so I'm sure you want them to enjoy
    more of a special time, right?
[01:15] ---
    The G Quest final festival!
[01:17] ---
    We've prepared a special match
    between Team TRY3
[01:21] ---
    and the Association's
    specially-selected dream team!
[01:27] ---
    The lineup of the dream team is a secret
    until the day of the match.
[01:32] ---
    It'll be held two weeks from now,
    right here at the Association headquarters stage!
[01:37] ---
    TRY3 members, will you accept
[01:41] ---
    our final challenge?
[01:48] ---
    Of course we'll accept it!
[03:27] ---
    Early spring is the season
    for sole in Tokyo Bay.
[03:30] ---
    Our main target is marbled sole!
[03:32] ---
    We'll aim for where they gather
    in the shallows to spawn!
[03:36] ---
    We'll catch 'em today!
[03:38] ---
    She really likes this kind of thing, huh?
[03:41] ---
    I guess it's that Dragon Empire Branch blood.
[03:43] ---
    Shion! I'll catch a lot of fish
    for your dinner!
[03:46] ---
    You don't have to worry about me.
[03:48] ---
    All right, let's get started! Bait the hook!
[03:52] ---
    Bait?
[03:54] ---
    This?
[03:59] ---
    Th-This is way too professional!
[04:02] ---
    Stealth Millipede?
[04:04] ---
    Quit kvetching and bait up!
SIGN    Turn 22 Night Before the Showdown
[04:16] ---
    We haven't had a bite.
[04:18] ---
    We've only just begun. Waiting is the
    name of the game for sole fishing.
[04:22] ---
    You're an avid angler, huh?
[04:28] ---
    Should we really be spending our time here?
[04:30] ---
    The big battle is tomorrow.
[04:32] ---
    Don't come here and then complain.
[04:35] ---
    It's fine to just have mindless fun
    once in a while, isn't it?
[04:38] ---
    There's no point in flailing around
    this late in the game.
[04:40] ---
    Yeah, I know, but still...
[04:46] ---
    Ryuzu Myoujin is probably trying to use
    the fight of this "ultimate stage"
[04:51] ---
    to summon the final unit from Cray.
[04:57] ---
    The final unit... How do you know?!
[05:01] ---
    I've confirmed that there are
    twelve Depend Cards in all.
[05:07] ---
    We have four cards,
     and Ryuzu Myoujin has eight.
[05:12] ---
    However, it's been confirmed
    that one among them
[05:15] ---
    had been summoned prior to the G Quest.
[05:20] ---
    Of the remaining seven, Myoujin has used
[05:23] ---
    the G Quest to awaken six of them.
[05:26] ---
    The ultimate stage is to awaken the last one.
[05:31] ---
    But in the moment that happens,
[05:33] ---
    there's a chance of finding out his location.
[05:36] ---
    We're going to make use of the
    ultimate stage fight, too.
[05:40] ---
    With the collective effort of the Plan G
    participants, we'll uncover his hidden den.
[05:47] ---
    It's called "GIRS Crisis."
[05:56] ---
    I want to know everyone's decision.
[05:58] ---
    Whether or not we can entrust TRY3
    with everything, going forward.
[06:04] ---
    They don't have much experience.
[06:06] ---
    If we're just talking raw ability, the people
    assembled here are far and away superior.
[06:12] ---
    But...
[06:13] ---
    ...that's exactly why it's worth
    taking a chance on them.
[06:17] ---
    In this short period of time, they've grown
    to a level beyond what we imagined.
[06:23] ---
    I sense they have possibilities
    and the will to realize them.
[06:28] ---
    Knowing them, they can do it.
[06:30] ---
    Besides, they've got great teamwork,
    better than we had back in the day.
[06:37] ---
    Then we'll have TRY3
    challenge the final hurdle.
[06:41] ---
    Activating GIRS Crisis while
    participating in the final stage...
[06:54] ---
    So, today...
[06:56] ---
    Fishing is about waiting.
[06:57] ---
    This time is the best part of it.
[07:01] ---
    I didn't say anything yet.
[07:04] ---
    About tomorrow...
[07:06] ---
    What, are you starting in again?
[07:09] ---
    No. There's something I have to tell you.
[07:14] ---
    About my dad...
[07:16] ---
    He died when I was four,
[07:19] ---
    but I guess he was a Vanguard fighter.
[07:23] ---
    And it seems there was some connection
    between him and Ryuzu Myoujin.
[07:27] ---
    I kind of figured that out.
    I think it was at the Stargate Branch.
[07:34] ---
    My dad participated in Myoujin's research
[07:37] ---
    and was involved in an accident.
[07:41] ---
    But...
[07:43] ---
    ...only my dad and Myoujin know
    what really happened that day.
[07:49] ---
    You're saying it's possible it wasn't an accident,
    but that Myoujin eliminated your father?
[07:53] ---
    Shion!
[07:55] ---
    Shion's right.
[07:58] ---
    In the first place, it may have been about
[08:00] ---
    something between my dad and Myoujin.
[08:04] ---
    If that's the case, you guys are gonna get
    swept up in this thing about me and my dad.
[08:11] ---
    Well, I'm in the same boat.
[08:14] ---
    Ryuzu Myoujin is the man behind Ace,
    the villain who took over Kiba.
[08:20] ---
    He targeted the Kiba conglomerate as a
    source of funds to realize his ambitions.
[08:26] ---
    How did you find that out?!
[08:28] ---
    Well, I have my ways.
[08:31] ---
    So Ryuzu Myoujin is the true enemy
    that I should go after.
[08:36] ---
    Myoujin has greater power than we imagined.
[08:41] ---
    And he's expanding into
    unexpected areas, too.
[08:44] ---
    What do you mean by that?
[08:52] ---
    Ace's true identity is
    Rummy Labyrinth's Am Chouno.
[08:57] ---
    You've got to be kidding! Why would Am...?
[09:00] ---
    Unfortunately, it's true.
[09:02] ---
    There's no mistake. Ace is her alter ego.
[09:08] ---
    What about Luna? Does Luna know about it?
[09:12] ---
    Don't tell me...
[09:13] ---
    No. As far as I can tell, she isn't involved.
[09:18] ---
    But the Association formed Rummy Labyrinth.
[09:24] ---
    I have to think
    they've got some ulterior motive.
[09:26] ---
    What are you saying?! That Rummy Labyrinth's
    Am and Luna are Myoujin's agents?!
[09:34] ---
    That's impossible.
[09:36] ---
    Luna loves Am,
     and she's always doing her best.
[09:41] ---
    Am is serious, but socially awkward.
[09:44] ---
    That keeps her from honestly
    responding to Luna's feelings.
[09:49] ---
    Sorry, but I just can't believe it.
[09:53] ---
    If Am really is obedient to Myoujin,
    I think there's a reason for it.
[09:59] ---
    You may be right about that.
[10:01] ---
    Then I want to find out.
[10:05] ---
    How did it happen?
[10:07] ---
    And if Am and Luna are
    suffering because of that...
[10:12] ---
    If that's what you believe, Tokoha,
    I think you're probably right.
[10:17] ---
    All of us have our own reasons.
[10:20] ---
    It isn't an issue that
    only affects you, Chrono.
[10:29] ---
    Yeah...
[10:34] ---
    Chrono! You've got a bite!
[10:36] ---
    Seriously?!
[10:38] ---
    What do I do?!
[10:39] ---
    Hurry up, pull it in!
[10:40] ---
    No, wait! Picture the movement of the fish!
[10:43] ---
    Which is it?!
[10:44] ---
    That's difficult.
[10:46] ---
    It's not like this is your first time!
[10:49] ---
    Try thinking for yourself!
[10:51] ---
    Now you tell me! Right after ordering me
    to imagine the fish's movement!
[10:55] ---
    That was good advice.
[10:56] ---
    You just said it was difficult!
[10:58] ---
    For you, Chrono...
[10:59] ---
    Why, you...!
[11:16] ---
    The Stride Force conversion rate is at 92%.
[11:20] ---
    I think this is about the limit.
[11:22] ---
    At this level, there are no practical issues.
[11:26] ---
    We do have a problem with the
    speed of transmission, though.
[11:29] ---
    At the moment, we've barely
    reached our target level.
[11:32] ---
    I'm pretty sure we can
    pull off breaking through
[11:36] ---
    the expected barrier and
    determining his position,
[11:39] ---
    but at about the same time,
    Myoujin's side will
[11:42] ---
    probably finish summoning the final unit.
[11:46] ---
    Excuse me. Coming in.
[11:49] ---
    Christopher Lo?
[11:50] ---
    I heard you were in Japan,
    but what are you doing here?
[11:54] ---
    I'll give you the details later.
    Let me borrow your keyboard for a minute.
[11:58] ---
    Wh-What are you doing?!
[12:01] ---
    Hmm!
[12:02] ---
    You did some good work here.
[12:04] ---
    I guess I'd give you a passing mark.
[12:06] ---
    But this transmission speed...
[12:10] ---
    While you guys are pinning down
    Myoujin's lair,
[12:13] ---
    he'll summon the final unit with
    the Stride Force he's collected.
[12:22] ---
    I'll give you an upgrade.
[12:24] ---
    Hey!
[12:25] ---
    It's okay. Just leave this to
    the genius Christopher Lo.
[12:30] ---
    I didn't give you permission!
[12:33] ---
    Wait, Asaka. That's...
[12:36] ---
    Certainly, with this,
    our attack will be many times...
[12:40] ---
    No, make that dozens of times faster.
[12:44] ---
    I couldn't leave everything to you guys.
[12:47] ---
    I want to get involved, too.
[12:49] ---
    Are you sure?
[12:51] ---
    Depending on the circumstances, not only could
    your position in the Association be at risk,
[12:55] ---
    but your life may be in danger.
[12:58] ---
    That's how you tried to scare me away before.
[13:00] ---
    You're actually a worrywart.
[13:06] ---
    We employees of the Association didn't know,
[13:10] ---
    but we're responsible for being
    complicit in Myoujin's plans.
[13:13] ---
    No matter how dangerous it is,
    I have to see this through.
[13:20] ---
    I see.
[13:22] ---
    Fighting you from time to time
    has made me realize something.
[13:25] ---
    No one is more serious about Vanguard than you.
    No one else faces it with their life on the line.
[13:31] ---
    And this is why, isn't it?
[13:33] ---
    You give me too much credit.
[13:35] ---
    Do I?
[13:42] [SONG] ---
    I guess your rating can be put on hold for now.
    You won't be asked to step down right away, but if you don't raise your level a bit, you'll be useless to us.
    That's the company's consensus of opinion.
    Do your best!!
[13:52] ---
    On the day of the ultimate stage,
    he'll summon the final unit.
[13:56] ---
    Everything is prepared.
[13:59] ---
    Everything except for me...
[14:07] ---
    I won't give up!
[14:09] ---
    I swear I'll make my wish come true!
[14:14] ---
    Am!
[14:17] ---
    Singin' and Dancin' Announcer, Shout!
[14:23] ---
    Oh, is it lame?! Okay, then, um...
[14:26] ---
    Rick the Ghostie!
[14:30] ---
    Oh, Luna!
[14:32] ---
    Am?!
[14:33] ---
    Thank you.
[14:42] ---
    I win!
[14:43] ---
    Well, I can't complain.
[14:46] ---
    We had a school of fish right in front of us,
    and you couldn't catch a single one! No talent!
[14:51] ---
    Shut up! I was just unlucky, that's all.
[14:54] ---
    This is plenty for all of us.
[14:59] ---
    Fried fish! Boiled with soy sauce!
[15:01] ---
    Meuniere would be good, too.
[15:03] ---
    By the way, do you guys
    know how to clean a fish?
[15:10] ---
    That's our Chrono.
[15:12] ---
    Once you've got the knack, it's nothin'.
[15:15] ---
    Here, you try it.
[15:19] ---
    I'll wash the rice! I'm good at that!
[15:37] ---
    Thank you for the food!
[15:45] ---
    Aerial Divine Knight, Altmile
    attacks your Vanguard.
[15:49] ---
    Perfect guard with Passionflower!
[15:52] ---
    Triple drive!
[15:55] ---
    Critical trigger!
[15:57] ---
    I give all of the effects to Twin Sword.
[16:01] ---
    Twin Sword attacks your Vanguard.
[16:04] ---
    I guard with Flower Garden Maiden, Mylis.
[16:07] ---
    Suleiman attacks your rear-guard.
[16:10] ---
    No guard.
[16:13] ---
    Good thinking.
[16:14] ---
    Even if Shion gets a point of damage
    this turn, he won't win.
[16:18] ---
    So he's holding back on
    doing damage this turn
[16:23] ---
    to ensure that Tokoha can't
    use Counter-Blast in her next turn.
[16:26] ---
    Stand and draw.
[16:28] ---
    Come to think of it, I wonder who
    our opponents will be tomorrow.
[16:32] ---
    They haven't told us yet.
[16:35] ---
    It's a "dream team."
[16:37] ---
    So it's possible the members will be fighters
    who usually don't gather for this kind of thing.
[16:42] ---
    Well, whoever our opponents are...
[16:46] ---
    ...we'll win!
[16:48] ---
    Of course! That's what we're prepared for.
[16:53] ---
    We'll finish our G Quest undefeated!
[16:57] ---
    That must be the path that'll
    lead us to the truth!
[17:09] ---
    Hey! There you are, TRY3!
[17:13] ---
    You guys!
[17:15] ---
    We came to cheer you on!
[17:17] ---
    Here, Tokoha! Your favorite!
SIGN    Good Luck, TRY3! Nishi Bakery
[17:20] ---
    Thanks, Kumi!
[17:23] ---
    You three fought about everything,
[17:25] ---
    couldn't even decide on a team name,
    but look how far you've come!
[17:31] ---
    Listen! You'd better not embarrass yourselves!
[17:36] ---
    Naturally!
[17:41] ---
    To all of the generations that love Vanguard,
[17:47] ---
    we bring you this dream stage,
[17:50] ---
    the ultimate stage... and of course
    we're opening with a starting shot!
[17:54] ---
    We're Rummy Labyrinth!
[17:57] ---
    Am!
[17:58] ---
    Luna!
[17:59] ---
    Am!
SIGN    Fighting Soul Injection!!
[18:28] ---
    Is it okay for you to be here?
    It's about to get started.
[18:33] ---
    Everything is ready.
    I don't need you to remind me.
[18:41] ---
    I'm counting on you.
[18:48] ---
    Leave it to me.
[18:54] ---
    Systems all green.
[18:56] ---
    GIRS Crisis... activated!
[19:05] ---
    Stride Force injection.
[19:08] ---
    Build up speed.
[19:11] ---
    6... 6.7... 7...
[19:15] ---
    7.2... 7.8... 8... 8.8...
[19:34] ---
    Now it all begins. A new world...
[19:39] ---
    Finally, Vanguard leads
[19:42] ---
    to a perfect future...
[19:47] ---
    Why couldn't you understand that, Rive?
[19:57] ---
    Sorry this is disturbing your studies abroad.
[19:59] ---
    In the end, I had to put you in charge
    of what's happening over there.
[20:03] ---
    It's for the sake of Vanguard.
[20:05] ---
    I've cleared up all the problems.
[20:07] ---
    If you give me the go sign, I'll get started.
[20:12] ---
    I'm not alone here, either.
[20:14] ---
    I got it done with everyone's help.
[20:17] ---
    Sorry. But I'm grateful.
[20:23] ---
    The power of imagination unleashed
    from fighters all over the world...
[20:27] ---
    It's converted into Stride Force through FICA
[20:32] ---
    and sent back and forth worldwide with GIRS.
[20:37] ---
    The GIRS system is in operation
    24 hours a day, and nothing stops it.
[20:43] ---
    We couldn't touch the control system
    with Myoujin in charge.
[20:49] ---
    That's why we decided to destroy GIRS.
[20:53] ---
    We're gathering an unheard-of
    amount of Stride Force,
[20:58] ---
    amplifying it, and then inserting it
    into GIRS all at once.
[21:02] ---
    The overloaded GIRS will crash,
[21:04] ---
    and when it totally stops...
[21:07] ---
    ...we'll be able to measure just the
    Stride Force of the summoned units.
[21:12] ---
    That will give us Ryuzu Myoujin's location.
[21:46] ---
    Let's go!
[23:23] ---
    TRY3, the only team that has
    gone through the G Quest undefeated!
[23:30] ---
    Versus the team that has beaten
    countless fighters...
[23:34] ---
    Three strong fighters who
    are aptly called legends!
[23:38] ---
    Team Quadrifoglio!
[23:40] ---
    Team Q4!
[23:58] ---
    Well, we finally made it.
    Are you mentally prepared?
[24:02] ---
    Totally!
[24:04] ---
    ...is what I'd like to say,
[24:06] ---
    but I had no idea this kind of fight
    was waiting for us at the end.
[24:09] ---
    It's a great production.
[24:11] ---
    Yeah.
[24:12] ---
    But there's only one thing we can do!
[24:16] ---
    Give them everything we've got!
[24:17] ---
    Let's go!
[24:18] ---
    Roger!
